Mercy Thompson, car mechanic and shapeshifter, never knows what the day—or night—may bring. But in the fifth novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling series, she's about to learn that while some secrets are dangerous—those who seek them are just plain deadly…

Mercy is smart enough to realize that when it comes to the magical Fae, the less you know, the better. But you can’t always get what you want. When she attempts to return a powerful Fae book she’d previously borrowed in an act of desperation, she finds the bookstore locked up and closed down.

It seems the book contains secret knowledge—and the Fae will do just about anything to keep it out of the wrong hands. And if that doesn’t take enough of Mercy’s attention, her friend Samuel is struggling with his wolf side—leaving Mercy to cover for him, lest his own father declare Sam’s life forfeit.

All in all, Mercy has had better days. And if she isn’t careful, she might not have many more to live...

Adapted from the novel and produced with a full cast of actors, immersive sound effects and cinematic music!

So Good!

I love this series and the graphic audio does not disappoint. The voice work is excellent. It enhances the story and the listening experience.

Mercy just can’t avoid trouble

As Mercy and Adam are finally starting to get stronger together things, of course, go sideways. This series is so good and the graphic audio is truly the only way to listen to such a lively world and group of characters.

Silver Born

The male voice actors are really really good. I guess I'm just spoiled with Laura liye King but these young ladies are doing a great job again. great storytelling a great storyteller

Graphic is best

I have loved this series as a reader. zNow to hear the characters being brought to life makes me love it even more!

Excellent From Start to Finished

I really enjoy this series and especially enjoy the dramatized version. It’s an excellent way to distract from a struggling world.

Trouble always find her

Hey! I just dove back into the Mercy Thomas series, and honestly, it was totally worth it. Our favorite skin walker, shifter, coyote, is back in action! Mercy just seems to attract trouble—or maybe trouble always finds her. Sam goes through some tough times in this book, but there's a really unexpected happy ending for him too. Meanwhile, our alpha, Adam, discovers that he can't trust everyone in the pack, especially when it comes to Mercy. Not everyone is thrilled about their relationship either. Sometimes, the biggest problem isn't what it seems on the surface—it’s hidden deeper in the story. I really enjoyed this one! I listened to it on Audible’s graphic audio, and it made the experience even better.

Very good

Enjoyed the Graphic Audio version of this audiobook. Plenty of mystery and interesting scenes with likable paranormal characters.

Love

I love these dramatised audiobooks so much. It really does feel
Like you are watching a movie happen in your head. Add in the fact that Mercy Thompson is one of my favorite characters and comfortable reads makes this even better.

Meh

This is the second series I’ve listened to with graphic audio, but the first one where I have read the books and listened to the regular audiobooks (a lot).

I’m honestly disappointed. There are some casting/accent choices I do not agree with, Stefan doesn’t have an Italian accent (which is mentioned in later books, Ben’s British accent is not “posh”, etc. I also find a lot of the time there is a lack of emotion to the line deliveries, I don’t know how they divide the book up to give lines to the individual voice actors, so maybe the context is left out. I also understand with Graphic Audio performances the books are abridged to add sound effects and to remove things like “he said/she said” but more than that has been cut out, including mentions of Welsh (and Spanish lines changed to English in a later book) which I think is to the detriment of the story.
